IT was difficult to keep up with the Festival coverage on TV this week, switching channels so as not to miss any interview. But it was a week where the racing dominated, no need for any fluff.

If you were not present on the glorious Tuesday and subjected to Whats Apps videos from your mates on the track showing the cheers for Honeysuckle, Wednesday ‘from home’ turned the tables and gave you a bit more of a “where are ya now?” as the rain came and social media came awash with comments of “never been so wet in all my life”.
